Happy Valentine's Day - now watch out for those teddy-bear bombs!!
Der Office of Homeland Security has issued a new doozy. Evidently, a "clean-shaven male, possibly of Middle Eastern descent", purchased nine Valentine teddy bears, 20 inches tall, and 14 canisters of propane small enough to fit inside the teddy bears. He also bought 12 packets of BBs*, a block of Limberger cheese, 3 small onions, and a grenade launcher. He then walked out of the store and into his cropduster. Mostly true story, created by our own govmint hoping to keep us distracted and/or frightened enough that we ignore the investigations into the Enron Administration.

Axis of Stupidity
-good stuff by David Talbot in Salon.com. Some snips:
'Bush utters the world "evil" the way a child does when it first dawns on him that there is darkness and danger in the world, and only his goodness and courage stands in its way. His axis-of-evil war cry, of course, was an attempt at Rooseveltian grandeur -- but because it mangles geopolitical reality.
It reminds us that this is a man who entered the 2000 presidential race in midlife with the barest, most homespun grasp of the world beyond America's borders, and after a year of Condi Rice tutorials and on-the-job training, is just a step away from calling Greeks "Grecians." '
And the wh*re media continue to give this bombastic clueless idiot a break.
